Introducing the Turnigy Trackstar 80Amp TURBO 1/12 and 1/10 Sensored brushless car ESC. Featuring a CNC alloy case top which incorporates the heatsink for the Mosfets, neat terminal cups for both the battery input and ESC output cables. The ESC software has a large number of user programmable settings such as Punch, initial brake, drag brake, boost timing RPM, boost timing, Turbo timing, Turbo delay, Turbo ramp, boost acceleration - allowing this ESC to be customised in nearly every way you could ever need for 1/12 or 1/10 scale on or off road racing! So what is Turbo? Well simply put - Turbo is a short duration burst of top end motor RPM and power - best used sparingly, it is similar in effect to KERS on the current Formula 1 cars!
The Turbo function is fully user programmable too! I purchased one of these 80A speed controls from a fellow racer and have used it with excellent results in my 2wd Traxxas Slash with a 13.5 sensored motor in dirt oval racing. Swagbucks blog. I have even managed to take a TQ and Amain win. When I bought a second 2wd Traxxas Slash I placed an order for the same ESC but this time brand new from HK.
Delivery was very slow and the tracking I paid for stopped working once the item reached my country. When I finally received my ESC, I was disappointed to find that it contained just the ESC and a few loose pieces of wire. There was no manual or instruction sheet on how to configure this ESC and the documents provided online are poor and one is for a Hextronik speed control and not the Hobbyking which is very odd. The only way to adjust any of the features is with the optional program box or some USB software that when I checked does not exist. If you plan to buy this ESC, make sure you also buy the program box or you will not be able to change any of the settings. Overall, the ESC works well and the price point is certainly attractive. The difference in price between this ESC and more well known brands is not that much and I think that HK could at least include a small setup sheet to at least get users started in blinky mode.
